About Cheryl

Cheryl Broome is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside narrative and solution-focused methods to help people address a range of emotional and practical challenges.

Background and approach

With two decades of professional experience in Texas, she emphasizes collaborative work that highlights each person's strengths and existing resources while addressing issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and relationship difficulties.

Her style centers on helping clients reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, explore the stories that shape their reactions, and set small, achievable goals that move them toward greater resilience and purpose.

Cheryl also attends to related concerns like caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication problems, domestic violence, substance-related issues, family of origin dynamics, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination. Cheryl invites clients to acknowledge the courage it takes to begin therapy and supports practical steps forward using approaches that fit individual needs.

She is licensed in Texas as LCSW (TX LCSW 33573) and conducts services in English.

Practical approaches for online growth and healing



Cheryl commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, and Narrative Therapy, which helps people reframe their life stories to find new meaning and agency. Both approaches are practical and goal-oriented, and they can be applied to issues such as trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and behavioral challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Cheryl works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She emphasizes shared decision-making so that treatment evolves from the client's priorities while drawing on evidence-informed strategies to guide progress.

Online therapy with Cheryl uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible and flexible for varied schedules and circumstances. These formats let people continue work between sessions, use brief check-ins when helpful, and choose the communication style that fits their day-to-day life.
